If you obtain a device such as the Logitech Harmony Hub that should be possible. I remote control my TV like that. If you combine it with an Android TV (or Apple TV) then you'll get even more options for what to watch or how to control the TV.
I also combine my Harmony with Alexa so that I can use voice commands to turn it on along with my Playstation or stereo or whatever.

I'm not sure about the Harmony remote but I think that needs to be within physical range. The Harmony Hub has an app you can use to access the device from anywhere even when you're not at home.
